Two Sisters, of Aberystwith and Smack David, of Cardigan
On the 26th October, while it was blowing a heavy gale from the north, with a high sea on, two vessels at anchor in the roadstead hoisted signals of distress. The same valuable life-boat was immediately launched, and went to their assistance.
She first went alongside a schooner, which proved to be the Two Sisters, of Aberyst- with. The crew, 3 in number, were soon got on board the boat, which then went to the aid of the other vessel, which was found to be the smack David, of Cardigan, and her crew of 3 men were also taken into the boat, and both crews safely landed on Goodwick Beach. The boat behaved most admirably. The schooner afterwards went down at her anchors in about five fathoms of water.
